Lalla Takarkoust Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

My host family took me to Lake Takerkoust (its dam powers all of Amizmiz and Marrakech) for a hike. Up here, you can see the entire floodplain and the river tributary that flows into the main lake. Far away on the other side, you can see a motorbike riding across the dirt road as if a speck of dust was slowly floating across space. As we sat and ate our picnic of fruit and veggy sticks, I couldn't help but wonder how much more Morocco is than just its stereotypical perception, a desert.
Lake in the middle of the desert!  Peaceful place.

Good family hotel : spent 6 days there with my family (8 & 11 YO kids) and we had fun. Food was great and the shuttle to Marrakesh a great bonus. I would recommend it for sure .

Overall, the apartment was fine for what we needed. It was clean and comfortable. A sofa bed would be a beneficial addition as the sofas are quite narrow. There are shops and restaurants close by for anything you need. The noise from nearby building works i imagine would be annoying for most, but ...

Lovely view, relaxing and quiet. Lovely change to Marrakech

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

The area is very rural which is part of the charm. There are a couple of options for lunch and dinner which are right on the lake and serve Mediterranean insprired cuisine. There are also lots of fun things to do on quad bikes, horses or dune buggies
